I understand the new stadium will have a fully automated, GPS-based, sideline marker system which will eliminate the need for a human chain gang.

On the contrary, wftc’s will have his own locker.DC69Wildcat wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 8:07 pmI understand the new stadium will have a fully automated, GPS-based, sideline marker system which will eliminate the need for a human chain gang.
Valparaiso is hosting Dartmouth Saturday. Valparaiso's stadium holds 5000. Dartmouth would be an acceptable non-conference opponent.85Wildcatsky wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 1:57 pmI finally clicked on the tab and saw the 5000. Yes that could hurt but in the current configuration it looks like end zone grass may be available for overrun. I have been at Navy and Wake games where the end zone hill is easily filled with 2 - 5000 more fans. The key is to make sure it doesn't end up looking like a high school stadium.Bill Cobb wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 1:05 pmI think, when everything is taken in, that this is great for Davidson athletics. However, my one gripe (and it is a big one) - the stadium is waaaaay too small. With only 5000 seats, two things are guaranteed:
* We will rarely have a decent non-conference game. Doubtful many D1 schools will return games.
* We lose out on a whole segment of quality recruits with a small stadium.
But then, anything is an improvement over that ancient dump.
Endzone pylon?

Coach Fagg (and Barbara!) will always have a warm place in my heart, and this news made me very happy. Well-deserved. And I'm grateful for Mr. Andrews' humble generosity in helping recognize this great Wildcat. Good stuff all around!
